Comment sorting not working

I just downloaded the blackbird theme and is working for me…. strange.Try another theme and let me know if is working.Also support will be limited I’m in college and I don’t have internet acces.

Hello,
I see this is marked as resolved, but the sorting by likes/dislikes is not working for me.
I tried it on a fresh WP 4.5.1 install, with twentysixteen as a theme, and no other active plugins.

I looked through the plugin’s code s bit and I couldn’t find where you set how the query var ‘orderby’ gets interpreted when it is equal to ‘likes’ or ‘dislikes’.
Did I miss something in the code? Is this implemented in a different way?

I tried a fix, that seems to work (add the code to functions.php)

function vortex_system_column_orderby( $vars ) {
	if ( isset( $vars['orderby'] ) ) {
		if( 'likes' == $vars['orderby'] ) {
			$vars = array_merge( $vars, array(
				'meta_key' => 'vortex_system_likes',
				'orderby' => 'meta_value_num'
			) );
		} elseif ( 'dislikes' == $vars['orderby'] ) {
			$vars = array_merge( $vars, array(
				'meta_key' => 'vortex_system_dislikes',
				'orderby' => 'meta_value_num'
			) );
		}
	}

	return $vars;
}
add_filter( 'request', 'vortex_system_column_orderby' );
